As Covid restrictions across the UK gradually continue to ease, the self-isolation period for those with the virus in Wales currently stands at five days.
However, now the legal obligation to self-isolate following a positive coronavirus test has been scrapped altogether in England, there are many people in Wales who are now considering what they would do in the situation that there were no rules in place here.
It's a quandary that many will face in the coming months as they balance their work and social life alongside the easing complications of the global pandemic.

We took to the streets of Cardiff and asked people if they would still self-isolate with Covid if they didn't have to, and this is what they said.
What would you do? Have your say in the comments below.
Lynne Hughes of Caerphilly said she would continue to self-isolate if she had been in contact with the virus regardless of what the government says.
She said: "Yes, I would definitely still self-isolate even if we didn't have to because I would want to keep other people safe. It is hard but you have to do these things, and even though you can't depend on everybody else doing it, if we all do our bit then we'll be alright.
"I don't think they should change the rules in Wales at the moment anyway as I think England has gone too quickly with removing their restrictions, whereas we have been going more steady which has kept people safe.
"All of my friends are of the same opinion as I am, and they think England has gone too quickly with it whereas we like to go slow and steady in Wales. I think even if we didn't have to do it and the rules changed though the majority of people here would still self-isolate if they discovered they had Covid."
Imad Morgan, 71, says while he too would continue to isolate regardless of what the rules say, his hopes for others doing the same thing are much less.
He said: "I will still self-isolate because I think the danger is still there with the virus and we should be more cautious, especially for the age bracket I belong to. I'm 71 and that's why I fear that lifting restrictions now might be too early and we should keep them going.
"Unfortunately I don't think people will stick to it if they don't have to, especially the younger generations who don't want any restrictions, which I do understand as I have children and grandchildren myself.
"For the older ones though it is very important to do, and even now when I'm going into the shops I am still a bit scared and thinking twice before I go in."
Jamie Richards, 39, of Tonyrefail says even though he thinks self-isolation rules should be scrapped in Wales now, he would still be mindful about how he behaved around others having come in contact with the virus.
When asked if he would self-isolate if he didn't have to, he said: "Probably not, but I would still be mindful about my whereabouts and what I'm doing as I still have a responsibility and a duty of care to the public. That being said this has gone on for some time now and the measures are starting to relax as we go through life.
"I think they should get rid of the isolation rules in Wales now. The isolation period is for five days now, but you wonder how long it's going to be before it's changed to three days then two days, and eventually nothing, so I think we should just scrap it now and get on with life as quickly as possible."
Kevin Smith lives in Birmingham but travels to Cardiff for work, and says whether or not the Welsh Government decides to scrap the rules to self-isolate in the near future, people with Covid should still do it out of courtesy and consideration for others.
He said: "I would still isolate as I think we have a duty to look after other people as well as ourselves, and if you've got Covid, despite the fact that a lot of people have been vaccinated against it, they can still catch the disease and die so you have to think about them.
"Whether the Welsh Government scraps self-isolation or not, I'd still wear a face mask if I thought it was appropriate and stay away from people, as I think this is going to be an ongoing thing with the virus which isn't going away with the different mutations.
"There's been three or four different mutations already, so we've got to learn how to live slightly differently now without giving up the life we're used to.
"People can make excuses that someone else is giving the rules out but we should all have our own personal rules to live by, and I think we should all try to respect one another and look after each other."
Ken Jones and wife Jackie Jones live in Swansea and say while they would self-isolate if they caught Covid themselves they no longer see the need to isolate purely due to close proximity.
Ken said: "We wouldn't self-isolate now if we didn't have to as I think it's time we get back to normal. We've had our vaccinations and we've had our booster so there's nothing else we can do apart from get on with it.
"There's too many small businesses in Wales that have suffered already in the last two years through no fault of anybody other than Covid, but now I think we need to start getting back to normal.
"There may be older people and vulnerable people who would still be a bit nervous about what's out there Covid-wise, but in the main I think most people will not bother with self-isolation. If you catch it obviously that's another thing so do your bit to stay away from others knowing that you've got it, but other than that no I wouldn't self-isolate."
Burt Van Gorp has lived in Cardiff for five years after he moved here from Belgium. While Burt says he would keep to himself in the event of having covid he also believes it should be up to people to do what they want.
He said: "I would be willing to self-isolate as I think it's very important. I wouldn't like it but we have to carry on at the moment because it's not gone.
"It all depends, as if you have to go out to work to feed your children I would definitely think twice, so I definitely think it should be a case of each to their own.
"I think it's important to stick to your own guns and if they don't want to stay in then we will just have to live with it as the flu is contagious as well, so we used to have all that going on and it's back to how it normally was years ago."
Gilly Gratton was visiting Cardiff for the day with her daughter Flora from her home in Cornwall and says she believes all parts of the UK should hold on to at least some form of self-isolation.
She said: "We would still isolate definitely because we wouldn't want to spread it to other people. We've recently had Covid and missed two foreign holidays, just because it feels like we should really.
"If the rules are in place it means people will be keeping themselves and others safe, even if it's just for five or seven days. It feels important to us and I think Wales has done the right thing while England has maybe scrapped it a bit too soon."
